Naming Stuff Thread

[zyxy]

We will settle Grey Dot (near the mountain) next turn (turn 80). It seems most votes are for The Aerie (General_W and presumably peter for 1/4?) and The Chalet (sirdanilot and again peter for 1/4?). Last chance to cast or change your votes! If nothing changes, I'll go with The Aerie.

Blue Dot will be settled in a few turns, and we could call it Chamsuri's Cove - though it will probably build workers mostly, so perhaps another name is better?

Some other names still in reserve:
The Arboretum
The Lodge
The Lookout
The Meeting Room
The Round Table
The New Yard
The Peir (sp?)
The Docks
The Naval Stores
The Slipway
The Marina
The Naval Academy

and probably some more that I forgot...

 

[Niklas]

I vote for The Aerie too.

 

[tomasjj]

Chamsuri is still alive and aren't places and such named after people posthumously?

 

[tomasjj]

The Aerie is fine.
As for the seaside city, there are many good candidates on the list there.

 

[peter grimes]

Indeed, your instinct was correct that The Peir might not be spelled right. It is The Pier

 

[sirdanilot]

The Arboretum For a forest-ish town it sounds cool.
The Lodge ^
The Lookout Sounds cool for an island town.
The Meeting Room Good name and fits the theme.
The Round Table ^
The New Yard I personally don't like this one.
The Pier Good coastal name.
The Docks ^
The Naval Stores I don't really like this one either...
The Slipway See "The Pier"
The Marina ^
The Naval Academy See "The Naval Stores"

Just my two cents about those names...

We'll build a galley next turn, and another one a few turns later. Any suggestions for names? CG Aerok has been mentioned.

Votes for Blue Dot? (To be settled in 5 turns.)

And for Cyan Dot? (Up next.) The Arboretum has been suggested and would be fitting here, while the trees last at least...

 

[Paul#42]

Everlasting trees can be found in the polar region...

How about something with Green (The Green Mile )?

 

[tomasjj]

The Greenhouse?

 

[Paul#42]

nice.

The Ballpark?

 

[Aigburth]

The Cutting Area - A forest area or stand delineated or marked for logging

An apt if rather inelegant name.

 

[AutomatedTeller]

if we build something called The Green Mile, it almost has to have ICBM's in it at some point and mainly make military.

 

[sirdanilot]

Even if the forest would be gone when we settle that, the name 'The Arboretum' will remind us of the glorious history of this place.

 

[zyxy]

Lots of names, now let's try for consensus .

Votes I can see sofar, please correct me if I'm wrong:

Blue Dot - Chamsuri's Cove (zyxy)

Cyan Dot - The Arboretum (sirdanilot, zyxy), The Greenhouse (Tomasjj, maybe Paul?), The Ballpark (maybe Paul?), The Green Mile (maybe Paul?), The Cutting Area (Aigburth).

New galley - ...

 

[Aigburth]

I like Chamsuri's cove for blue dot

I also vote Arboretum for Cyan (Cutting Area was just an idea, I don't particuarly like it)

 

[AutomatedTeller]

do we wish to retire the name Chamsuri from the rolls of our navy? We could name our new galley after our initial brave ship

Chamsuri's cove for blue dot - The arboretum sounds good for Cyan Dot.

 

[Paul#42]

Chamsuri's Cove for blue dot agreed.
The Aboretum for cyan is also fine.

Forget The Green Mile and The Ballpark.
The Greenhouse might once remind of a former jungle town...

 

[donsig]

Chamsuri's Cove is ok for Blue Dot and I'm not sure about Cyan Dot - but there's time, isn't there?

I do think we should have a galley named Chamsuri.

 

[Niklas]

Chamsuri II in that case. I like Chamsuri's Cove and The Arboretum.

 

[General_W]

I also like Chamsuri's Cove and The Arboretum.

And "Chamsuri II" for our first Galley.
